Hudson Valley Dominates Upstate NY School Drop Out List
What the actual flunk? Not only did the Hudson Valley make the top five. We actually were the top five.
It's pretty sad when you see the Hudson Valley completely dominate a list like this. I feel like I can talk because even I graduated high school and I barely showed up.
New York Upstate posted a list of towns north of New York City with the highest high school dropout number. Naturally, I had to see how many HV schools made an appearance. I was shocked to find out that 13 out of the top 25 schools were located in the Hudson Valley.
Of the top 25, here are the top Hudson Valley towns that made the list from best to worst with high school drop out numbeers/
10. Poughkeepsie
9. Wappingers Falls
8. Monticello
7. Ellenville
6. Shokan
5. Newburgh
4 Kerhonkson
3. Kiryas Joel
2. South Fallsburg
1. Brewster
Did you go to any of these schools? Does it surprise you?
